Hello I'm Rich Brown and this is my personal website and blog. I'm just your simple, average, down to earth, professional, out gay man and aspiring circuit boy, living in Phoenix, Arizona with a few things to say while trying to find my place among all the scary, conservative, religious nuts in this sick and twisted world.

Friday Night On The Town
I think I mentioned in another post that Philip was headed out to Phoenix this weekend to hang out. Justin, Andrea, Mark and I picked Philip up at the airport around 9 PM and headed up to pick up Jerry before going over to Cheuvront's for some dinner. Cheuvront's in Phoenix on Central is a trendy & fun wine bar with a great wine, cheese and dinner menu. As we always do when Philip is around is laugh, and Friday night was certainly not lacking in the laughter department. It was fun piling everyone in the car and heading out on the town.
Following dinner we headed out for some drinks and decided to check out Amsterdam. It really felt like we hadn't been out at Amsterdam in a long time. I wasn't surprised to find the bar fairly empty for a Friday night. I remember not too long ago it would be extremely crowded all weekend, but since the opening of Burn, it just seems like everyone has lost interest in Amsterdam. I guess it's true that there really is a limited amount of people in Phoenix, and perhaps it just can't handle have two trendy places. I suppose that's a conversation best saved for another day.
Around 1 AM we decided to pack in the car and head up to Charlies for afterhours. Once again it wasn't a very pretty crowd, but I did run into a few people I haven't seen in a while, so it was a good time. Mark also was able to snap a quick photo with the legendary Barbara Seville.
We stayed at Charlie's for a few hours and then packed into the car and headed back to our house to continue drinking. It was a fun night, and the start of a good weekend with Philip in town.
